Oh my, ITS A LIEBSTER AWARD {note the caps, I'm screaming with excitement}!
For those of you who don't know {raises hand shyly, as she looks around the classroom- um, I didn't know} It's an award given to up and coming bloggers who have 200 followers or less. The word Leibster is a german term of endearment. The award is generally presented by other fellow bloggers who enjoy reading your material.
I'd like to send a HUGE THANK YOU to my lovely blog buddy Amy Michelle for nominating me-This is my first blog award and boy does it feel awesome to be thought of.
When you're nominated for the Liebster Award, there are a few simple rules you should follow if you decide you want to accept--here's what you need to do:
I) Post 11 random things about yourself
II) Answer the 11 questions the nominator has asked
III) Nominate 11 Bloggers w/less than 200 followers & include their link in your post
IV) Create 11 questions of your own to ask the people you nominate
V) Notify the nominees of their award (no-brainer, right?)
VI) And lastly, you can't nominate the person that nominates you
Now that thats all clear…. lets get this party started {in my M.C. Hammer voice}
Randomness:
I believe that Jesus is the son of God and that he died for our sins and transgressions
I own a ton of nail polish and I have YET to polish my oswn nails (I need to do better y'all)
I didn't "Need" a Keurig until I started blogging, now I can't begin my day until I've had me"K-cup"
I'm thankful that Amy Michelle nominated me for this award, I really appreciate you thinking of me :)
I get PISSED OFF to the fifth power when my fur-baby reconfigures my pumps with his teeth, but I find it photo worthy when he gets a hold of my hubby's shoes
These are the people who motivate me to be the best ME I can possibly be, and to accomplish the goals I set for myself this year. Meet my handsome hubby and our darling children (they all drive me crazy but I love them to life)
I can't resist a sale…hence the reason, I'm about to head out to the VS Semi-Annual Sale
People say life doesn't come with a manual; well, for me the Bible is good enough
I am totally Hooked on Scandal
I love to read books and I thoroughly enjoyed reading the Fifty Shades trilogy
(whew, gotta speed things up a bit so the pics stop here)
Answers to Amy Michelle's Questions (click here to see the questions):
Spa treatments in a nice ambient environment, followed by a good book and a martini cup of coffee or tea = superb relaxation
Fav Starbucks drink = Carmel Brûlée Latte
Where I want to vacation = Negril Jamaica
Fav Pass-time w/ fam = Watching Movies and baking delightful treats
What I like about spring = Spring to me is the equivalent of what New Years means to most people, it's like a new beginning, flowers bloom, the butterflies dance around the flower beds. I sip on pink lemonade and try different springy recipes- and I get to slide into my fab sundresses, open toe sandals, sunglasses, and big floppy hats
What I dislike about spring = Love + Bug; I hate those nasty little things. They. Freak. Me. Out. Seriously!
I take my Christmas decor down after Jan 7th
FB or Twitter- Um, Facebook I guess, Lol
Do I sponsor with anyone- No, not yet. Maybe sometime in the future
Yoga or Pilates- Pilates (I'm not very flexible)
I dont' really make resolutions but my goals are simple:
Have a more intimate relationship with God
Focus on my education
My Questions:
Whats your fav restaurant?
What would a perfect date night consist of?
If you could pick a celebrity to hang-out with, who would it be?
What's your fav movie or book?
Do you prefer to shop in a store or online?
What three words best describe you?
Whats your fav perfume right now?
Victoria Secret or Fredrick's of Hollywood?
What's your most used Christmas gift?
Do you have a fav handbag?
Which do you prefer, iPhone or Android (or neither)?
And the talented nominees are {drumroll}…..
